Second Life Steals, Deals, and Freebies: L$300 Free Store Credit from Gaall, Vaxer, Sweet Temptations, and Chic & Shoes

We now return you to our regularly scheduled programming…”  If you are looking for my blogposts about SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19, please click here. I have returned to the original purpose of this blog—covering “news and views on social VR, virtual worlds, and the metaverse”.


Yesterday I received a message from Moonshine Allerhand, the co-owner and designer for four different Second Life stores:

Hey!

We know most of you will stay at home, so I want to gift all my loyal subscribers with L$300 store credit. You can choose your favorite store (Gaall, Vaxer, Sweet Temptations or Chic & Shoes).

You can get the credit only once (March 21-25th) and it will be available for you to use until the end of the month (March 31st).

Here are the landmarks of the stores:
Gaall
Vaxer
Sweet Temptations
Chic & Shoes

At each store, there is a large sign advertising the free credit:

Just click on the sign, and on the blue pop-up window that appears, select which one of the four stores for which you want the L$300 credit:

(You might want to visit each of the four store using the SLURLs posted above before you click the Free Credit sign and choose the store; each store has different merchandise.)

Once you have received your credit, just click on the vendor for the item you want (in this example, the Edna sweater and skirt set from Sweet Temptations), In the blue pop-up window, click on the Store Credit button:

You will then be asked to confirm that you want to use your allocated store credit, and the item is delivered to you!

The Edna sweater and skirt set from Sweet Temptations comes in a size specifically to fit Altamura mesh bodies (which this avatar is wearing), as well as Maitreya, Belleza, Slink, and Tonic mesh bodies. The included HUD gives you ten colour and pattern options.

Free fashion feels good! Happy shopping!

Second Life Steals, Deals and Freebies: Free Autumn Boots from Baby Monkey

One of my favourite things to do when I am feeling tired, depressed, and stressed out—still, after all these years!—is to open up Firestorm and go randomly exploring in Second Life. I almost always find something to surprise and delight me, and to take my mind off my real life troubles.

Today, I loaded up one of my alts (very aptly named Autumn Winter!) and I did a search under Places for “autumn”. I discovered this masterfully landscaped autumn morning forest, on a sim called Angelhaven, with many meandering trails under red and golden leaves:

Angelhaven Autumn Forest (near the landing point)

Near the shoreline is a lovely rustic pub with a balcony overlooking the sea. The new age music stream was so soothing that I immediately began to relax and unwind!

Autumn Winter is wearing:

  • Mesh Head: Giselle Bento head by Altamura (no longer available for free; this was an Altamura gift from Christmas 2017 at the eBENTO event, and you had to join the Altamura group for L$50 to get it).
  • Mesh Body: Jenny Bento body by Altamura (this was a free gift from the 2017 Women Only Hunt, and on this version, you can remove the head and replace it with any other mesh head, as I did here. Note that the Jenny free mesh body is now available at the Freebie Megastore at London City (more information here), but you cannot remove the head on the newer free version.
  • Dress and Leather Jacket: Calixta outfit from Gaall (I picked this outfit up for free when the store had a free gift card offer recently; unfortunately that offer is now over)
  • Boots: Paola boots with fall leaves pattern (a brand new Fabulously Free in SL group gift from Baby Monkey; the group is free to join)
  • Hair: Hurrah hair by Ade (a free gift from the recently concluded 2019 Hair Fair)

TOTAL COST FOR THIS AVATAR: Only L$50 (the cost to join the Altamura group)
